Abstract
in English, Russian

The presented case describes the difficulties of diagnosis of the breast microglandular adenosis (MGA), taken by clinicians for a malignant process due to the nature of growth and large size. Criteria for histological and immunohistochemical diagnosis and differentiation of MGA with malignant neoplasms, in particular, with tubular breast carcinoma, are presented. Taking into account the rarity of the pathology and the absence of described cases in the Russian-language literature, the observation is of interest to pathologists and clinicians.

В представленном наблюдении из практики описан сложный случай диагностики микрогландулярного аденоза (МГА) молочной железы, принятый клиницистами за злокачественный процесс из-за характера роста и больших размеров образования. Представлены критерии гистологической и иммуногистохимической диагностики и дифференцировки МГА со злокачественными новообразованиями, в частности, с тубулярной карциномой молочной железы. Принимая во внимание редкость патологии и отсутствие описанных случаев в отечественной литературе, наблюдение представляет интерес для врачей-патологоанатомов и врачей клинических специальностей.

Keywords: breast carcinoma; immunohistochemistry; microglandular adenosis; tubular carcinoma.
